i posted this to ask if anyone has done or seen it and what happened? aren't the dam genes dominant?

has anyone had 2 silks have a cottony coat or vice versa? i'm curious NOT
trying to cause a debate!

how can you tell what coat your dogs will have when they are puppys?
if a puppy has a thick wooly bully coat will it be a cottony or possibly turn into a silk? when do their colours change?

basically how do you know
when you buy a puppy what the coat will be silky or cottony and any way to predict colours?

how is one coat gene correct and another is not
